Advancing Urban Planning with the Community Capital Compass with Mark Roseland
Description
Contemporary planning approaches often fall short in addressing the cascading environmental, economic, and social issues planners and their communities face. Planners need comprehensive, forward-thinking approaches that prioritize sustainability, equity, and inclusivity.
Mark Roseland’s new book, Toward Sustainable Communities: Solutions for Citizens and Their Governments, is the definitive guide to the why, the what, and most importantly, the how of creating resilient, healthy, equitable, and prosperous places.
Dr. Roseland will introduce the book’s innovative Community Capital Compass as a powerful tool for maximizing the environmental, economic, and social benefits of complex community and regional decisions. The Compass promises a transformative, equitable, resilient, and sustainable approach to urban development.
